new Dodgson fuses (picture)

[Bill Ervin]

I picked these up from Shawn Lenci at the Visalia Fall Fest. The larger one is the Windsong/Lovesong/Anthem fuse and the smaller ones are for the Pixy 2m and later model Camano214.

They're beautiful, light and completely devoid of pinholes. Larger one weighs 6oz. and the lighter of the two small ones weighs 3 3/4oz. (I'll use that for the two meter). The other small fuse uses a different lay-up with the cloth on a 45 degree bias, it's 5oz. (will be used for my 100" Camano).

These new taco-shell fuses use an epoxy resin. The ones I have are all glass but I think Shawn will work with you if you want something special. He showed me one at the contest that had some carbon reinforcing.

Yippee! I TOLD that guy he needed to get those fuses back into production:-)
They are very pretty when finished and have a more fullscale flavor totheir lines than many of today's ships.

I received two new epoxy glass Windsong taco shell fuselages and
canopies from Shawn Lenci today. They look great! Also I weighed an
original poly resin set that I have saved for many years. The shell and
canopy come in at 226 grams. The new epoxy glass set comes in at 203
grams. I can't wait to get started on this project!!!
